What other platforms? There's nothing but PC and next-gen consoles to focus on... so why in god's name would they thin the focus even more by expanding to "other new platforms"?

They should fix and patch what they put out now instead of trying to "developing new products for the PC, next generation consoles and other new platforms".

Long live the confederacai! That would be a sweet game. No grenades, tanks, choppers, planes, and hopefully no mines. None of the things that usually kill me in bf2, usually through no skill of the killer (except with the vehicles).

Nothing like firing 4 shots a minute with terrible accuracy.

You can always try this game.

Civil War rifles were fairly accurate. Which led to so many bloody battles because they were still using old tactics with new weapons. A famous example is Pickett's Charge.
